Re: My Hatch and CRX

Love your builds man. I miss my 91 Si hatch with a DOHC ZC swap terribly. The wheels you put on after the theft recovery look dope. Good luck with the continuation of your builds.

Re: A/C input 2002 RSX Type S

we must be the only ones melting away in this awful, sweltering 108* Texas day time heat wave that won't end.

Any input would be great, I'd like this car to keep running as well as it has been.

Re: Help! cannot find an ecm for my ruckus anywhere!

Have you tried total ruckus or the battlescoter forum? If you can't find it on total ruckus, you aren't trying. So many people do engine swaps that you should be able to get one for $100 or less.

Re: 5th gen Prelude has mechanics stumped…ideas?

Have you rechecked the new fuel filter? It could potentially be clogged. Sounds like a fuel problem to me.
